Hii... Been lurking on this site for a while so thought I'd introduce me!
Not too sure but looks like I'm a little younger than most of you guys on here, hopefully will get some good advice and ideas. I'm 17 and still in full time education doing my A levels at 6th form in England whilst my boyfriend (20) is currently working on a super yacht as a deckhand in Ibiza atm for 5/6 months then heading to Barcelona for winter. We meet last year in October time however he had to go work in the Caribbean for 5 months last winter and that was really hard because of the time difference and with him working 24/7! Hit a bit of a rough patch.. However he's got a job that's not too far this time so we can visit each other more often. However when he's gone I couldn't feel more alone and miss him so much, and find myself waiting for when he's free so we can talk, he works a lot and doesn't get much time off so makes it really hard to plan FaceTime dates and just texting in general. It's hard to get the right balance as when I'm busy he's not and when he's working I'm free.. Just wanting those good morning and good night texts and just really random conversations and to stat up late on Skype all night with him, but can't ever seem to get the timing right. Hopefully after a couple of weeks he'll have a time tabled schedule so it'll be easier to talk, trying to stay positive although it's hard at times...also a bit worrying that he's living in 'party Central' and keep thinking what if. Although what's keeping me going is the trips to go out and see him SOON! And he does always make an effort to be with me no matter how much he has to work. Really want this to work out as he's the first guy I've properly 'loved'..
Think everyone here is pretty much on the same page here and it's nice to see that LDRs can work out, any advice on how to keep a strong connection is apprivated! Also I apologies for my life story...
